Life can be challenging. It can be difficult opening up to someone about the worst that's happened to us, about the parts of ourselves we struggle with. For some dealing with trauma can impact how we treat others, having negative impacts on relationships & life. I’ve worked for over 25 years with those who’ve experienced complex trauma: who’ve lived/worked in conflict zones; been abused by family; struggle to emotionally regulate; have been abusive & with relationship breakdown. As a couple it’s important to feel the therapist you choose is able to work with you around your relationship.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ( ACT) is an action focussed therapy that links with CBT.
We all get stuck, lost and don't know which path to take at times. We often then get into patterns to help us manage, we stop doing things that make us anxious, we drink or eat more for example, but these behaviours don't always connect with the person we want to be or the life we want to live. I want to help you to get back to the things that matter to you. I offer 1:1 online and The Space to Be outdoor therapy groups to children, young people and adults. Nature is a powerful ally in therapy and having fun and creating provides opportunities to learn skills that can positively impact on your day to day life now and future growth.

Whatever the struggle may be, you are not alone.

I’m particularly passionate about supporting "good church girls"—those who have taken on caregiving or problem-solving roles in their families. These responsibilities can feel isolating, leaving little room for your own needs.
You might notice you are stuck in unhelpful patterns, overwhelmed by anxiety & unsure how to balance your needs with others’ expectations. Therapy can be a space to put yourself first for once: learn to set boundaries without guilt, let go of the need to always be “perfect”, reclaim your energy and time for what truly matters to you.

I can help people who are experiencing all levels of distress and unhappiness. You may have feelings of dissatisfaction and a sense that you are not getting all that you want in your life. At the other end of the spectrum you may be finding that every day is a real struggle with strong, even overwhelming, feelings of depression, anxiety, stress, anger etc. I believe that all of us want to strive to feel happier and more fulfilled than we currently are. We want to feel a connection with other people and to have a sense that we are leading meaningful, enjoyable lives - even when at times we feel at a loss as to how to achieve this.

Children, young people and adults therapy for Anxiety, Emotional Regulation, Neurodiversity & Life Transitions
I draw on psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches to explore how early experiences shape present thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, alongside practical tools from CBT, ACT, and mindfulness.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or frustrated by patterns that keep repeating despite your best efforts to change. Perhaps anxiety, low mood, or the impact of past experiences is affecting how you feel about yourself, your relationships, or your parenting. Many people come to therapy wanting to make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface and to find ways of coping that actually help. Therapy can offer a space where you feel understood, not judged, and where change feels possible.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Counsellors
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
